Shouldn't Apple ban apps using those SDKs? Is it identifiable from a source scan or binary trawl?

  I think so, seems to be the logical progression of their crackdown on particularly egregious 3rd party analytics implementations.

  The issue is that there are legitimate uses for this type of code, though. For example, I have my home set up with tons of automations that change, for example, the color of the lights when I'm in the kitchen vs. when my wife is in the kitchen. She prefers warm lighting and I prefer the daytime lighting. It's the same technology, it's just being misused in these commercial instances, in my opinion. People don't actually know that they're agreeing to this type of usage.

  In ios 13 they added bluetooth and wifi access as privacy toggles. Does this prevent this sort of tracking by apps if turned off?
